Cygnus-13: Mission Ready, is a standalone prologue to our upcoming game. Check it out to meet the crew and learn a bit of what's to come in the full game!
Cygnus-13: Mission Ready
The story before the story...
In Cygnus-13: Mission Ready, you play as Frankie, an everyday reptile working as a Mission Clerk at the Intergalactic Alliance Headquarters. Frankie is busy prepping to interview the crew of the starship Cygnus-13 as her job is to assess the crew's preparedness and overall compatibility. As a bonus, she gets to see her longtime friend (and longtime crush) Kassidy! Of course, Frankie knows that life can change in an instant... but today is just a regular day at work, right?
----------------------------
Meet the Crew of Cygnus-13!


----------------------------

Cygnus-13
So, what's in the main game?
In the main game, you wake up on star-cruiser Cygnus-13, with no memories of your past. The ship's crew has rescued you from floating, alone and unconscious, in the depths of space. Trapped on a foreign ship with unfamiliar crewmates, you realize these people are now your only lifeline to survive what feels like a strange, new galaxy.
You must gain the trust of this crew that have taken you in with (only somewhat hesitantly) open arms in order to find out who you are and what has brought you here. Of course, tempers finally flare when you realize that something - or someone - wants you all dead. If you're lucky, you may just find a special ending with the alien of your dreams, or die in a fiery ball of space plasma.
The choice is yours!

Key Features
Date Aliens!
Meet our diverse cast of characters and pick one of the four available aliens to get close to! Niall is hardworking and kind, though a bit awkward socially - then again, he hasn’t exactly been lonely all his life, either. Keekyne has a bold, outgoing personality that - almost - everyone can get along with. RGB are three separate physical beings, but as part of a hivemind, they are legion - or are they? And M1NG, the medical robot, can help heal your wounds… but what else are they capable of?
Your Choices Change the Story
You must make active choices throughout the game, sometimes gaining favor with one character and possibly earning disdain from another. Your crewmates' opinions of you can have drastic consequences! You won’t be able to see every scene in just one playthrough, so remember to save early and save often!
Mini Games
Each companion has their own mini-game. Play through them to help keep Cygnus running smoothly. Success means learning a bit more about them in the process!
Check back soon to see key updates and new game features!

Apologies if it is obvious.
But the "DEMO" this page talks about IS "Mission Ready", right?
There doesn't appear to be any links towards any available (playable) game.
Thanks.
Cool people would support this game. Just saying.
